Chapter 118: Jurassic Park

Views:

In terms of stunning, "Jurassic Park" is not inferior to other novels at all, and it quickly ignited the dinosaur craze around the world.

I never expected that "Science Fiction World", "Most Fantasy" and "Legendary Literature" would turn their backs and warn those writers openly and secretly not to cooperate with "Fantasy Age".

"What other reason could there be? I just want to occupy the market and don't want our magazine to compete with them for sales. The market for fantasy magazines is so big. If we sell more copies, they will definitely sell less. These people It seems that they regard themselves as the monopoly of the market.”

The range of choices is relatively large, but many works need time to ferment. If you are writing "The Three-Body Problem", the first few tens of thousands of words will not be exciting enough.

He was so angry that he didn't even notice the pain in his palm, a rage burning in his heart.

Of course, this is not a novel that relies on movies to sell well. "Jurassic Park" was published in 1990, and the movie was released three years later. As early as 1990, the year it was published, the novel ranked first on various best-seller lists. It can even be said that part of the success of the movie at the box office is due to its wide readership base.

What he needs is a novel that grabs the attention all at once, Hyperion, Foundation, Flowers for Algernon or Minority Report

The most important thing for a writer is his work. Most excellent works are carefully thought out. Books written in a hurry are likely to ruin their reputation.

If there are really no writers to submit articles, a magazine will not be able to survive anyway.

"I will not sit still and wait for death. How can I be defeated after putting in so much effort!"

In fact, the content of the "Jurassic Park" trilogy is only one-tenth of the content of the original novel, but it has already swept the global box office of US$2 billion.

On one side are best-selling magazines that sell millions of copies per issue, and on the other side are ordinary magazines that are about to resume publication but have an uncertain future. There is almost no suspense in the choice of writers.

"You have already helped me so much. The others should have good quality manuscripts in their hands. I should just ask more."

The names of novels were floating in his mind, and suddenly the idea of "Jurassic Park" suddenly came to his mind.

Lin Han also nodded solemnly and patted his chest: "What can I do? Or should I withdraw the serialization of "I, Robot" published in "Science Fiction World" now?"

Lin Han quickly stopped him, "No, I'm very fast, I will definitely make it tomorrow afternoon. This time I will serialize the novel in a magazine first, and then publish it physically after the serialization is over."

Li Wenyuan hesitated for a moment, then he asked: "The more you say this, the less I believe it. Maybe tell me your story, I'll see how confident you are."

Lin Han tilted his head. This was probably just a coincidence, but it seemed to be a good excuse.

Even this is not an ordinary bestseller at all. Its sales record is 200 million copies worldwide. It is the highest-selling book besides the Bible. This record is extremely strong and difficult to break.

Li Wenyuan didn't want to drag down his friends. He had originally invested 2 million yuan in this magazine. If he ruined his reputation by hastily writing, it would be more than worth the loss.

Lin Han smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this being a BUG. In the novel, scientists used the blood of amber brown mosquitoes to extract dinosaur DNA and then cloned it. It's still a bit difficult according to real-life science and technology, but it should be set in the future. no problem."

"The title of my book is "Jurassic Park", which probably refers to the story of a rich man who, in order to make huge profits, used the latest bioengineering technology to clone different types of dinosaurs and built a dinosaur theme park called Jurassic Park. But just when the park opened, these ferocious predators broke out of their cages, and people on the island were constantly being devoured by carnivorous dinosaurs. This synopsis may not be so attractive, but I think you will not be disappointed after writing it."

This is absolutely the best choice, and the novel can also be adapted into a movie, which earned more than 900 million US dollars at the box office in the 1990s. There is so much to explore in the future.

In fact, this is not the first time that several major magazines have joined forces. They have joined forces to suppress many magazines. After the original editor of Fantasy World, Ah Dou, and other editors collectively quit Fantasy World, they established the fantasy magazine "Fantasy King", which was later renamed "Fantasy King". Fantasy novel".

"Mosquito, you are looking down on my ability. I am not bragging. I can write five thousand words in an hour now, let alone tomorrow afternoon. I can write it for you even if I stay up late today. The outline in my mind has already been It's perfect, and the information is fully prepared. The story structure and character framework have been released." Lin Han said this deliberately, and he quickly searched in his mind for what to write in the next novel. It would be best if he could Sensational.

Li Wenyuan couldn't help but want to scold him. He originally thought that he had a good relationship with these magazines. After all, he had cooperated with most of them before.

"I remembered. Some time ago, I saw the news that a prehistoric mammoth carcass was found in Siberia. The mammoth that had been frozen for thousands of years seems to be being studied by Russian, Korean, and American scientists, saying it can be cloned. Come out. Are you using this as inspiration? It’s so interesting. If you could actually write it, it would definitely be fascinating.”

However, under the pressure of this alliance, the magazine's high-quality Fantasy King and fantasy novels ceased publication.

"You were born to write science fiction novels. This is a great idea! How do you plan to bring dinosaurs back to the world?" Li Wenyuan felt a little scary just imagining it. What if dinosaurs took over the world again? I have already begun to worry about whether all the tourists in Luoji Park will be eaten before I even read the novel.

"Forget it, forget it, I will hand it over to the printing house tomorrow afternoon, and you will definitely not be able to make it in time. I will put this old face aside and ask the others." Li Wenyuan sighed, and the pressure on his shoulders suddenly disappeared. Too much has been added.

Li Wenyuan touched his chin. He thought this idea was very good, but he seemed to have heard it somewhere.

Lin Han had never heard of such a thing in his life. Why should the author be imprisoned within the scope of the magazine? The author and the magazine should have an equal relationship.

Li Wenyuan shook his head, "Don't be so naive. They won't admit the suppression. This is all whispered. Now, can you have a novel that has been written but not yet released? The first priority is to fill the vacancy of Hu Mengxuan. , otherwise the first issue will not be released on time."

"I, Robot" will be serialized until August. Now Lin Han is disgusted by the science fiction world and wants to draw a clear line with them.

"I haven't written it yet, but I have already conceived it in my mind. If possible, I will start writing it right away. How many tens of thousands of words do you need for the beginning?"
